Abstract: A holder (101) for a mobile electronic device includes a case portion (102), a connection member (107), and a handle (106). The case portion is configured for holding the mobile electronic device. The handle is rotatable about the connection member. The connection member includes a first flange (112) on a first side of the connection member and a second flange (113) on a second side of the connection member opposite the first side of the connection member. The first flange is spaced from the second flange such that a first portion of the handle is held in an axial position relative to the case portion by the combination of and between the first flange and the second flange. The connection member is a single body. An entirety of the connection member is removable from the rest of the holder through the handle.

Abstract: A foldable case is configured for removably receiving a separate and distinct mobile electronic device having a front device surface, a rear device surface opposite the front device surface, and a periphery extending between the front device surface and the rear device surface. The case includes first and second cover members and opposing hinge members. The first and second cover members include respective first and second rear walls, respective first and second peripheral rims, and respective first and second sidewalls extending between the respective rear walls and the respective peripheral rims and thereby define respective first and second recesses configured for receiving respective first and second portions of the device. The opposing hinge members each extend between adjacent locations at the respective peripheral rims of the first and the second cover members to hingedly connect the first and the second cover members.

Abstract: The disclosure describes a biometric authentication system that can authorize a transaction at a retail store using a person's biometric data and password. The biometric authentication system may include a point-of-sale device that can receive a biometric data (e.g., voice data, fingerprint data, or facial data) of a person that initiates a transaction. The biometric authentication system may also include one or more authentication systems that analyzes the received biometric data, and an authorization system that compares data obtained from the one or more authentication systems and the POS device to determine whether the information obtained from the person is related to that person's biometric and password information previously stored by the authorization system.

Abstract: An outer case for covering a handheld electronic device or handheld electronic device case includes a base, a lid, and a collar. The lid is pivotably attached to the base. The collar is attached to the base and is moveable away from the lid such that the lid rotates away from the base during movement of the collar away from the lid.

Abstract: A case for a mobile device includes a frame and an elastomeric shell. The elastomeric shell is received in the frame and has an outer surface, an inner surface opposite the outer surface and configured for receiving the mobile device, and a rim extending between the outer surface and the inner surface. The inner surface forms inner projections each having an inner extremity extending toward an inside of the elastomeric shell and each being configured for contact with the mobile device when arranged in the inner surface. The outer surface forms outer projections defining respective outer projection extremities and forms outer troughs extending between the outer projections and defining outer trough extremities. The outer projections extend toward a frame inner perimeter of the frame such that each of the outer trough extremities is spaced further from the frame than adjacent ones of the outer projection extremities.

Abstract: An outer case for covering a handheld electronic device or handheld electronic device case includes a base, a lid, and a collar. The lid is pivotably attached to the base. The collar is attached to the base and is moveable away from the lid such that the lid rotates away from the base during movement of the collar away from the lid.

Abstract: An outer case for covering a handheld electronic device or handheld electronic device case includes a base, lid, and connecting portion. The base includes an elastomeric first layer and a second layer attached to the first layer and made of a different material than the first layer. The lid includes an elastomeric first layer and a second layer attached to the first layer and made of a different material than the first layer. The connecting portion is attached along a rear wall of the base and a rear wall of the lid. The rear walls of the base and the lid and the connecting portion are flush when the outer case is in a closed state with the lid covering an opening defined by the base. The connecting portion suspends the lid when the outer case is in a fully open state with the lid spaced from the base.

Abstract: A biodegradable container made from plant-based plastic that holds, in a preferred embodiment, one to two ounces of a gel-like or otherwise viscous liquid for immediate nutrition. Once opened and used, the container can be safely disposed of on the ground where it will be broken down by natural factors like rain over several days.

Abstract: Under the present invention a plurality of learning objects for an educational program are provided. Based on the selections, a solution scenario having contextual data for interrelating the plurality of learning objects is developed, and is maintained separately from each of the plurality of learning objects. Using the solution scenario, the plurality of learning objects are aggregated to form the educational program.

Abstract: The disclosed invention is a means of transporting personal items such as those commonly taken to do shopping, and storing them in an easily accessible manner to a shopping cart or stroller handle. The device can also include a second side for children riding in the child's seat of a shopping cart, thereby allowing storage for items of entertainment to the child or even a pillow for their comfort during the shopping excursion. The device is comprised of one or more flaps, at least some of the flaps including pockets that are capable of distinctively storing items that would be necessary to a shopper or child, whichever the case may be. The invention includes a pliable portion that is capable of flexing around and fastening to the handle of a shopping cart or stroller and in doing so creating accessible pockets that are exclusive to each the child and the shopper.
